Robby ,
I listened to your first mix the other night . I figured you posted the tune to get in gear and rise up to the occasion 

well I just got listening to your most recent version of your song

Wow bro I love the way you sing 
yeah, this tune is really coming  together on all levels
from  the individualized instruments and parts you play to the mix

I made a mental note to myself to listen to this again w a guitar in my hand  , it would be a nice one to play over

Kenny

Hey there Kenny, wow! You are a world class player in my book. I would love to take advantage of such an opportunity some day. But this one is all about that smoky sax and depression vibe. Thanks very much Kenny :-)

Echoing the comments above about the expressiveness and honesty in your voice. I'd add a touch of verb to that sax to soften it a bit, just my opinion and a matter of taste of course. I did not hear the original mix but this one sounds pretty good to me.

Oh yea that Timbo remix really sweetened this up. Oh my that's smokey and sweet, awesome job

It's good to know people who know what they're doing! Because I have no clue? Sometimes I swerve in to a good mix? But it's purely accidental :-( Some folks, like Tim, James, and Frank, "all of their stuff sounds pro." I'm honored to have the help and really pleased with how this one came out :-) 


Thanks Grant!

Very seldom a song will come along, a song that makes you stand up and take notice, a song that you have to listen to again and again. A song that inspires you to want to do better and improve as a composer. This is that song Robby.


Listened to the top one "Just a lie - reimaged Timbo" which left me Mesmerised and Speechless.


Mark.

Love the arrangement.  Nice vocals and sax.  Lke the wurly too!

Emotional and sparse..to me it sounds like the perfect combo!! One of your best IMO Robby. Kinda just poured outta you I'm thnking (the song I mean) Those are the best kind!

Thanks Larry, unfortunately that also does a good job of describing my dating over the last few years...

Interestingly, I was 2 feet from this sign when I snapped this pic this week at a work site :-) Hopefully I'll be around for at least a few more songs?

For some reason reverb-nation's player won't load for me either. Any chance of uploading to soundcloud or soundclick? Any song that has 3pages of responses is worth a listen or 3.

It works for me, but it takes a long time.  Maybe put that disclaimer in your OP, Robby....it takes 2-3 minutes to load for some reason.

Tone Loke, Nothing like a good and funky cold madina?  :-) powers far greater than mine control the vertical and the horizontal!  I thank you for listening and for commenting.

This is an excellent song, Robby!  I listened to the Tim version, I don't have time to listen to more this morning, but I'll be back and listen to the other versions later.  this one is fantastic!  your lyrics and vocals on this are your best work, IMO.

Hey there Reece, thanks! It's funny how that happens? You're sitting there minding your own business? And the song fairy jumps out? "Like a man in a rain coat..." And says, HELLO MY HONEY HELLO MY BABY HELLO MY RAGTIME GAL! :-) I love it when they happen like that :-) I'm glad you enjoyed it, it really was made so much better by James and Tim. My hat is off to them exposing my shinny head.


Thanks again for listening, and for commenting.

Very cool tune Robby.  I love your vocals on this.  That solo instrument is really nicely done.  I can't exactly tell what it is, but it's really musical.

No nits.  This sounds good to my ears.

Peace,

Ian

:-) You mean like Peter Gibbons from Office Space? (classic... you're becoming more and more relaxed, 3... Deeper and deeper, 2 you are completely relaxed, 1...)


From Office Space (1999)
Bob Slydell: Would you bear with me for just a second, please? 
Peter Gibbons: OK. 
Bob Slydell: What if - and believe me this is a hypothetical - but what if you were offered some kind of a stock option equity sharing program. Would that do anything for you? 
Peter Gibbons: I don't know, I guess. Listen, I'm gonna go. It's been really nice talking to both of you guys. 
Bob Slydell: Absolutely, the pleasure's all on this side of the table, trust me. 
Peter Gibbons: Good luck with your layoffs, all right? I hope your firings go really well.

WOW! Robby, 1st I gotta ask if ya need a hug, cause that women done cut you deep..lol. 
The song is well built and the words have meaning. I've listen to the 3 different mixes and like them all for different reason's( Man, there are some very talented people around here)
The only thing that sorta threw me off was, Left channel felt alittle heavy,I'd maybe move the guitar or the sax over to right-ish, which ever one feels better over there. One thing I wanted to hear under the keys at the ending every time....little sprinkle of that rain maker used in the opening.
Great job by all involved!!

She damaged me... I used to say if she died tonight choking on her own vomit that I'd throw a party tomorrow, or someone else's vomit? That would be even better... I've moved a little past that phase, but not far past it.


Thanks very much for listening and commenting. I started a new project today that's going to take me a while. I'm going to be a fun one though :-)

Hey, Robby,

I'm late to the party here, but this really sounds fantastic!

It's a little different than your usual stuff, but I love how the smooth vibe let's your vocals shine through perfectly, and Tim's mix sounds terrific.

Really good stuff, buddy, have a good one!
Bob

Big bad Bob! Thanks for stopping by, "I even got the ex to listen to it? And she liked it?" Weird...

You are Still The BEST Vocalist on here IMPO...I mean you could just have someone farting as your band and your Vocals would still soar.
